Making tweeks to get Hybrid News to work with MT 4.32tag:businessinterchangegroup.com,2009:/hybrid//41.9072009-10-11T22:15:34Z2009-12-31T15:16:37ZHere are issues discovered with Hybrid News running under MT 4.32:The Bio author custom field is not registered properly by the plugin.

The Bio author custom field is not registered properly by the plugin. Adding an Author Bio results in a MT error. When the Bio custom field is viewed in the UI, the system object type is blank. Fix is to remove the Bio custom field set by the plugin and re-add it using the MT UI.

The Theme Options are stored in the data base as Hybrid News Plugin data. The options are stored in the data base under mt_plugindata table but the plugindata_key is missing the Blog ID. !Important. (Note: see entry Example ... with screen shot of data base entries)

In the Entry Archive, The user_pic has a broken link to Profile View but the necessary setup to link to a "Profile View" page is not included in the header. Profile View is geared to the "Community" template sets. The variable "profile_view_url" was added to the HTML Head to fix the broken link: <mt:SetVarBlock name="profile_view_url">#</mt:SetVarBlock>)

Various little glitches in the css. I added custom css developed for MT 4.25 test.

Also, MT 4.32 contains a new UI widget called Zemanta. Need to figure out what value this provides. Seems to add another layer of complication for authors using the UI.
